"If you've heard about this band at all, you've probably heard that their sound incorporates various traditional Japanese instruments. This is true, but it's not immediately audible at first; instead of using them as solo instruments they tend to act as part of the rhythm section and take their place among layers of guitar and synths. That said, what does Paikappu sound like? Well, on the one hand, they don't resemble any band in particular; on the other hand, they don't have a sound that I would recognize as unique (although the koto and similar instruments help). It's basically archetypal space-progressive, perhaps comparable to Camel or a much more restrained version of Ozric Tentacles. Not extraordinary, but certainly pleasant."-Michael Walpole/Gibraltar Encyclopedia
